Sources 13, 13, 33 of the first to third thin film transistors are coupled together to form a first input terminal IN1 of the demultiplexer. Sources 43, 43, 63 of the fourth to sixth thin film transistors are coupled together to form a second input terminal IN2 of the demultiplexer. Drains 12, 22, 32, 42, 52, 62 of the first to sixth thin film transistors respectively serve as first to sixth output terminals OUT1 to OUT6 of the demultiplexer. Gates 11, 51 of the first and fifth thin film transistors are coupled to a first control terminal CRL1, gates 31, 41 of the third and fourth thin film transistors are coupled to a second control terminal CRL2, and gates 21, 61 of the second and sixth thin film transistors are coupled to a third control terminal CRL3.

The first to third thin film transistors are located at a side of the demultiplexer proximal to the first control gate line 301 and distal from the third control gate line 303, and are sequentially arranged along a direction in which the first to third control gate lines 301 to 303 extend. The fourth to sixth thin film transistors are located at a side of the demultiplexer proximal to the third control gate line 303 and distal from the first control gate line 301, and are sequentially arranged along a direction in which the first to third control gate lines 301 to 303 extend. The first input terminal IN1 is coupled to the first data line lead 201. The second input terminal IN2 is coupled to the second data line lead 202.
